7. Setting Up For Automatic Operation
Ensure the light switch is in the OFF position.
Turn the Lux Adjustment fully anti-clockwise to the Moon symbol.
Turn the On-time Adjustment to the desired setting (2, 4, 6, 8
Hours or D for Dawn).
The RED LED will light to indicate that an On-time duration has
been set.
When the ambient light level reaches the level of darkness at
which you wish the lamp to become operative (i.e. at dusk)
SLOWLY rotate the control in a clockwise direction until
a point is reached where the lamp illuminates.
Leave the Lux Adjustment set at this point.
At this position, the unit should become operative at
approximately the same level of darkness each evening.
Note: If you wish to use unit as a normal light switch, turn the On-
time Adjustment fully anti-clockwise to the 0 hour mark (the RED
LED will turn OFF). If you wish to use the Automatic feature again,
please follow the above instructions.

Adjustment
If you find that your lights switch on when it is too dark,
turn the Lux Adjustment clockwise towards the Sun symbol.
If the light is in operation when it is too light turn the Lux
Adjustment towards the Moon symbol.
Notes:
The ST210 light switch has a built-in delay function to ensure
that momentary changes in the light do not switch it ON.
The hours shown on the dial are only approximate guides,
do not expect great accuracy.
Once the switch has turned ON and the programme has turned
OFF after the required number of hours, it is important not to
allow artificial light to fall on it, followed by a period of darkness.
This will fool the switch into thinking it is dark again and it will
operate. Care should therefore be taken to prevent light falling
onto the switch, e.g. table lamps.
